Recently, Sadio Mane’s family gave an update about him staying at the club a bit more after the contract. Now, the team’s CDM, Marcelo Brozovic, also plans to retire at the club. He joined the Riyad-based club from highly successful Inter Milan for a $26 million deal. Brozovic’s agent has recently said, “He wants to continue his career with Al-Nasr until retirement.”

According to reports, Marcelo Brozovic wants to continue at Al Nassr even after his contract expires, with an intention to retire at the club. Even though he is just 30 years old, Brozovic would be 33 when the contract expires as he signed a 3-year deal. Brozovic was one of Inter Milan’s main players for seven years. He was instrumental in the team’s Serie A victory in the 2020-2021 season.

The 30-year-old also formed a crucial part of Croatia’s midfield that reached the Semi-Finals of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. Even though far from his contract’s expiry, the Croatian took a page out of Cristiano Ronaldo’s book. What does that really mean?
